1985 GT Pro Performer
White GT tires on black tuffs are sweet!
I had this frame and fork for about 10 years and have slowly restored it. I made the most progress this year finishing it and being able to ride it. I may tear it back down and have some things done differently. I have learned some things about restoration along the way that I wish I knew earlier. Two of these pictures are from when I listed it incomplete and one is finished project. It has nos GT tires, nos AME' tri's, Medal flange tuff's, nos white GT seat post, nos GT seat post clamp, GT mallet stem(finished picture), nos odyessey cranks, nos bear trap pedals, nos dia-compe mx-1000(black), nos dia-compe freestyle brake(white).

Re: 1985 GT Pro Performer
Oh Yeah, I put some GT spokes on their to, instead of tuffs. They are superlace w/ speedline rims.
